Cool.
--A gentleman residing in a village, finding that the diminution of his wood piles continued after his fires went out, lay awake one night, in order to obtain if possible, some clue to the mystery. At an hour when all honest folks should be in bed, hearing an operator at work in the yard, he cautiously raised his chamber window, and saw a lazy neighbor endeavoring to get a large log into his wheel barrow. "You're a pretty fellow, " said the owner; "to come here and steal my wood while I sleep." "Yes, " replied the thief, "and I suppose you would stay up there and see me break my back with lifting, before you'd offer to come and help me."
